For most, the Classics is a general term used to describe a group of races taking place in late March through early May.  While the specific list of races is open to debate, most use the term in reference to Milan-San Remo, the Tour of Flanders (Ronde van Vlaanderen), Ghent-Wevelgem, the Amstel Gold Race, Fleche [...]

Just got back from Redlands where the RideClean Team pinned up and suffered alongside 197 of their closest friends. Only 105 finishers mind you as Jonny’s buddy Jeff Louder spanked all comers. That was hard as shit…all I did was drive the car and I’m spent.

Monday is as Monday does. Yeah. Not much. Reading ain’t going so well today. And, mind you, it’s not yet eleven in the morning.
I put up a little something in the comment section an hour or so ago, and it went and led to a whole post. Go figure.
Just [...]

Found this one last week and thought I’d share. You know, because I can.

The furnace wheezes like a drenched lung.
You can’t fix it.
The toilet babbles like a speed freak.
You can’t fix it.
The fuse box is a nest of rattlers.
You can’t fix it.
The screens yawn the bees through.
Your fingers are [...]

God damn it’s coming like a freight train.
Filippo Pozzato succeeded Saturday in Harelbeke, Belgium. The Italian of Team Katusha pulled off a strong sprint win over the race’s number one favourite after 208 kilometres of racing in the E3 Prijs. It was his first win in over a year and a sign of [...]

Quote from the OMBA Forum “The rider was Kyle Markel, owner of Kyle’s Bike Shop in Orlando. Not just a really cool guy but a really cool bike shop owner too. It was a big bummer to see him crash. I talked to [...]

by ‘them’ i mean the big 3. Seriously. If they tried to make a better car, they wouldn’t be in this mess. I have sympathy for all the workers who are getting canned, losing their pensions, having factories shut down… But fuck the Big 3. They chose to stick with a post WW2, ‘American Dream’ [...]

“Would you describe, in your own words, what happened?”
“Bro… was ON! Didn’t trip. But the folks was freakin’, Man. Hey, and the pilots were laid to the bone, Holmes.”
I couldn’t have said it better myself.

The Question from Political Science class: The United States government is spending more on security (and war) than on reproduction and investment in the economy. This along with the deregulation of many industries (housing, real estate, banking, railroad, airlines, etc.) combined with recent corporate mergers and the increase cost of fuel (energy prices), all [...]

Hammy, still crushing it!!!

It’s friday. Go see things.
Doucheblog Hoovis is on the tip. Man, some hot prime over der, and don’t forget to vote. And thanks Burt. You’ve made my friday worth living. I’ve purchased a speedo off ebay as well. Tri is where the hots are. I’m going to be a triathlete.
Get re acquainted with your inner [...]

I mean, seriously, with parents by the name of Connie Carpenter-Phinney, and Davis Phinney, the genetics there are amazing. Add 2 great bike racers together, and out pops this kid, who at 18, is an elite world champion on the track. I’d say, that’s some pretty good work right there over in Poland.
It’s been what? [...]

here is a little press about some fellows (and ladies) i used to roll with in STL.

seriously, he is right in the middle off bunny hopping a dead coyote.
this is where more photos (plus info about the shinanagins at hand (and double plus info about lots more unrelated shinanagins)) can be found
and here [...]

Bike Trailer Shop is rocking a 10% discount on their Ortlieb products from panniers to bag-locks to drybags. Good timing since the summer is at the door. And then they have that free shipping deal.
